My Dominican cousin tried to convince me otherwise. But the all-natural baseball blog is proving to be a success. As of 3 p.m., we had close to 1,000 comments and the page views were about the same as any other day.

I received — seriously — 25 e-mails in favor of the idea and one opposed.

It may not stay that forever because my duty is to report the news even if it involves steroids. But it’s nice to know we can live in peace and harmony for at least one day and talk about baseball.

Speaking of baseball the right way, it’s cool that Mattingly Baseball is back as one of our sponsors. Check them out to find out more about their bats and other equipment.
